Crock Pot Coca-Cola Pulled Pork Sandwiches
This Crock Pot Coca-Cola Pulled Pork Sandwiches recipe is the perfect dish to make ahead of time, before a camping trip, for a fabulous dinner!
Friends! Today’s my last post with an amazing opportunity for you to win vouchers for (2) round-trip flights to anywhere in the continental U.S., Caribbean, Mexico, Central America or Hawaii, plus a $500 Visa gift card ($1,700 approximate retail value).
I’m partnering with Coca-Cola and hosting this fabulous #ShareaCokeContest. But first, let me tell you about our recent Westy-style camping trip in Oregon! (Contest is now closed.)
It’s no secret, my favorite part of camping in the summertime is taking our Westfalia camper van (otherwise known as Vanagon) to the great outdoors.
This time we enjoyed a weekend with our dear friends, hiked the east side of Crater Lake, enjoyed camping right on the Williamson River. (My hubby fly-fishing, off to the left.)
As we always do when we camp, we share and divide up the meals.
There’s nothing quite like camping food.
I set a festive table. Decorating is easy with beautiful scenery as the backdrop, and we keep packed red, white, and blue dishes and cutlery.
I surprised our dear friends with personalized Coke bottles.
Did you know that you can create personalized Coke bottles with the names of your friends and family on them?
Anything customized makes for good conversation. If you’re planning a party this summer, don’t forget that “Share a Coke” is perfect for celebrating life’s most sharable moments.

Crock Pot Coca-Cola Pulled Pork Sandwiches.
This time I made Crock Pot Coca-Cola Pulled Pork before we left, so it was easy to serve these yummy sandwiches and slaw for dinner one night.
Now let’s dig in and learn how to make this delicious slow cooker pork!
Start off with onions, green chills, and 2 bottles of COKE.
I used a shoulder pork butt, bone in, cooked on HIGH for 8 hours, to make the meat soft and tender and falling off the bone.
Next, we strained the juices off, kept the onions, pulled the meat off the bone, and added salt and pepper and a sriracha sauce!
Sliced up some cabbage for a light slaw (try this yummy Napa Cabbage Cole Slaw Salad recipe!)
Camping Cooking Tip: Cook ahead at home!
The perfect summer (camping) meal, because you can cook the meat at home, and assemble the sandwiches right at the picnic table!

Hello and welcome to my home and table!
I’m Sandy—lover of food, family, cooking, THE BIG BOARD, travel, and bringing people together. Through great recipes and connection around the table, we become better, stronger, and more courageous people. Feasting on Life is real, and every time we do it, we grow a little more. Read more...
photos are a must, with food a close second. ;-)
I like coming up with a cocktail idea to go with the meal and prepare it with the whole family, put each one to complete a task in the kitchen, it’s fun!
Those personalized Coke bottles are so much fun. What a cool surprise for your friends. I love the combo of sweet and savory you have going on in this recipe!
We like to celebrate by getting our entire family together a cooking out or having a meal. Lots of laughs and pictures!
We celebrate shareable moments with family and friends together as family with great food, fun and fellowship!
We just TRIED to go camping…unfortunately, we weren’t prepared for the weather and had to come home early. I am glad you had fun, and these sandwiches are totally calling my name! Pinned!
i celebrate shareable moments with family and friends with a lot of food!
These look amazing, Sandy!
We usually celebrate with a big family meal at home or by going out to eat. And you will laugh at the going out to eat part. We usually always have our parents with us who are in their 80’s and 90’s and they have two favorite restaurants – Mimi’s Cafe and Red Lobster! Great indeed but we never think of them as a fancy restaurant to take our parents too for a special occasion – but they love them!
Love,
Mary
